Why Homeowners Choose Paragon Pools

Building a pool is a big investment. You want a builder who’s honest about the process, communicates clearly, and stands behind their work.

Since 2005, Paragon Pools has installed hundreds of Latham fiberglass pools across North Florida. As a family-owned company, we believe in doing things the right way, even if it takes a little more time. That means clear communication, quality craftsmanship, and helping homeowners choose the pool that’s right for their backyard, not just the one that’s easiest to sell.

When you visit the Parade of Pools, you’ll see that commitment firsthand by touring real Paragon projects and hearing directly from the homeowners who enjoy them every day.

Our Installation Process

1. Design Consultation
We start with a conversation about your backyard, how you plan to use the pool, and what features matter most to you. We’ll walk through pool shapes, sizes, equipment options, and layouts that fit your space. This is also where we answer questions and provide a realistic picture of costs and timeline.
Once the design is finalized, we handle the permitting process with your local municipality. Every county has slightly different requirements, and we make sure everything is in place before construction begins.
Next comes excavation. Our crew prepares the pool area and installs the engineered base that supports the fiberglass shell. Proper base preparation is critical to the long-term stability of the pool.
This is the part most homeowners love to see. Your fiberglass pool arrives and is carefully set into place using specialized equipment. Because the shell is prefabricated, installation is much faster than for traditional concrete pools.
Once the pool is set, we install the plumbing lines, filtration system, pump, and electrical connections. This is where the equipment that keeps your pool running efficiently comes together.
After plumbing and electrical work are complete, we backfill around the pool and begin installing the surrounding deck. This stage starts to bring the entire backyard space together.
Your pool is filled with water, the equipment is tested, and the system is calibrated. We make sure everything is running properly before the final walkthrough.
Before we wrap up the project, we will walk you through how everything works. We’ll show you how to operate the equipment, answer questions, and make sure you’re comfortable maintaining your new pool.

Why should I work with Paragon Pools?

Since 2005, we’ve built hundreds of high-quality fiberglass pools across North and Central Florida. We focus on durability, low maintenance, and doing the job right the first time. Our team handles everything from design to installation and stands behind every project.
